Abstract

Theoretical analysis of optical properties of two recently synthesized phosphors with the Ce3+ ions (Na3LuSi2O 7 and NaSr4(BO3)3) was performed. The exchange charge model of crystal field was used to calculate the crystal field parameters and cerium 5d states splittings for each site in Na 3LuSi2O7. Analysis of vibronic coupling of Ce3+ in NaSr4(BO3)3 resulted in a quantitative modeling and theoretical simulation of the experimental spectra. Electronic energy levels, vibrational frequencies and ion-lattice vibronic coupling strength are determined specifically for Ce3+ at different sites. The performed analysis allows for getting detailed description of the optical properties of trivalent cerium in the considered crystals and provides a general guide to understanding and characterizing other Ce3+ activated phosphors.
